  1. aThis refers to sites which delivered the intervention only, and not the supported implementation package
  2. bOccasions on which a clinically justifiable explanation was given for an early/late/missing actual voiding time were exempted from this analysis
  3. cThis applies to Prompted Voiding clinical logs only
